Smoke Black
![]()

A smoke is a cat of contrasts.
The undercoat should be as pure white as possible
with the tips shading to jet black. The darkest areas appear on the back,
head,
and feet, where the undercoat is absent. The lightest area appear on the
ruff,
flanks, ear tufts, and pantaloons where the undercoat is most profuse.
